Haha, here I have been bragging like a sailor on liberty, but I haven’t yet put one word down in writing.
It’s like a writer’s block lol (not that I know how a writer’s block feels).

Another thing that seems to be lost now is calligraphy.
Everyone writes like chicken legs.
So i made a point to teach my kids how to have a nice handwriting style and now that they're in high school this habit seems to be stuck with them. They have degraded a bit compared to what they used to be but i know the foundation is there.
Sometimes my handwriting degrades when i want to write fast and long, during a meeting or something like that where you have to write fast.

You should ask @melita916 to show you some of her samples... .Another thing that seems to be lost now is calligraphy.

The teaching that we got was that you were supposed to fill all the uppercase letters from the bottom line to the top line, without going over or under it.
The lowercase letters are supposed to go exactly halfway between the lines in the sheet.
And if you made a mistake, you get whacked in the head with a ruler.
If you try to write like that in a daily basis, it would take you half an hour to write a sentence.
But this is how they wrote the Bible centuries ago. One page took days to write.

When you look at some old writings, they did a much better job than us today without the help of lines. Because this is what they did all day, every day.
This is kinda what they taught us in school. Keep uniformity in the page and you were supposed to divide the word by a line ( - ) when you reached the end of the page and continue on the next line in order to keep uniformity on the page as a whole.
In schools they don't teach this anymore now but i taught my kids during the first grade and the third grade how to write nicely and they do have the foundation down.

Also when you're learning this as a kid, there's a lot of trial and error on how to hold your hand on the page so you don't wipe the ink with your hand.

You have a great handwriting but I’m a little suspicious about how you write the letter “d”. lol
Yeah that's what happens when you write fast. Instead of keeping the lines close, they start trailing each-other with wide gaps from the speed.
Looks like an 'o' with an 'l'.

lol, at first I read “third” as “thivol”…which makes me also question your “r”. Haha
I’m sorry. I was six years younger and six years dumber when I wrote that.
We friends?
LOL!
We certainly are!
As a digression, I was looking at your "About" page, and you certainly have had a very interesting career path!
You should ask @melita916 to show you some of her samples... .
Oh man! I haven’t hand lettered in a long time! Lol

Awww, you’re so good at it. Remember whenever we took that road trip to Karesuando in Sweden and the clerk at the filling station thought you were Swedish?
